I wish that was true in 100% of cases, but after seeing numerous failed emaxx 3906 and 3905 diffs in brushed, novak and powerful BL setups, its just not true. Prevention is better than cure- why spend $$ each time fixing or beefing up stock diffs that will always have weak spider gears, when some modded LST diffs will cost about the same as a pair of new 3905 diffs?

UE or FLM hybrids is something else though, 'price not an issue' kinda upgrade....

^^ I'm with neil on that one. I've shimmed plenty of stock diffs and still blown them. LST diffs are the best cheap solution. I hear Linc even put one in his wife

I really think that if you plan to put lst diffs in anything, might as well be a lst... Makes the emaxx look like a toy.

Lst diffs are about the cheapest method to get decent diffs. You will need some sort of adapter or cup for the 8mm pinion, like Mikes adapter for revo center drives to 8mm. Or if you use center cvds, there are a variety of dogbone cups with 8mm holes in them. I used cut down revo stub shafts as diff outputs to attach 3.3 sliders to.
